"When you kill your enemy, you did the right thing"
"never fight in a advantage way"
"there's honor just in the death"
"if the victory is to die, you must die"
"we can't live in the shame"
"a samurai can't suffer his master error if he's the guilt."

If you see, the anime was too much tied with these things, so in their thought way, Ougi isn't a asshole and Lelouch had to die.
And at the same way, Cornelia, Nina & co. can live without any consequence.
That makes no sense. Cornelia was worse in that regard.

As for Ohgi, he was responsible for Lelouch's final descent, leading him to the ZR. Lelouch was still ever so slightly determined to pick himself up with Kallen's help before the betrayal happened.
